Bali bans the keeping of long-tailed #macaques as pets, a practice responsible for widespread cruelty & misery. This is an important new policy issued by #Bali Governor Koster & one that we hope will be introduced elsewhere in #Indonesia

Nature’s camouflage at its finest.

With limbs extended like roots, this camouflaged spider uses the terrain as its natural disguise, disappearing seamlessly into the landscape.

Remember the little guy from my last post? Meet his BIG brother 🦎. Just a lot more spikes and attitude!💚. The "little" dragon part definitely doesn't apply to him! 🐲

Iqo was rescued in 2022 after months kept as a pet. She arrived tired and thin, then grew strong with steady care. Now she is four and thriving in Forest School as she learns the skills she will need to return to the wild. 🤎

One thing I love about BlueSky, the calmness. I can scroll without auto-playing videos or random voices. No flashy animations trying to grab my attention. Just pictures, words, and space. Here, there's breathing room, space for ideas, for connections to deepen. My brain needs this. It feels good.

The Lamin Adat, or traditional longhouse, in Miau Baru is more than just architecture. It is a living symbol of Dayak Kenyah identity, values, and ancestral wisdom. This longhouse stands as the cultural and spiritual heart of the village.
